POWERFUL SCENE INTELLIGENCE ADAPTIVE DOME LIGHT
V-Ray Scene Intelligence analyzes your scene to optimize The new Adaptive Dome Light delivers faster, cleaner and rendering. You automatically get the best quality in less more accurate image-based environment lighting. It’s extra time. V-Ray Next introduces two new features powered by fast at rendering interiors and removes the need for skylight scene intelligence — Adaptive Dome Light and Automatic portals. Camera Exposure.
POINT & SHOOT CAMERA 2X FASTER GPU RENDERING
The V-Ray Physical Camera returns with a streamlined Built on a new multikernel rendering architecture, V-Ray GPU UI and scene intelligence for Auto Exposure & Auto White is twice as fast. And with support for more of your favorite Balance. Perfect renders are now as easy as taking a V-Ray tools, it’s ready to speed through your high-end snapshot. production scenes.
2 NVIDIA AI DENOISER GPU VOLUME RENDERING Instantly remove noise while rendering with IPR. Based V-Ray GPU now supports volumetric effects like smoke, fire on AI-accelerated technology from NVIDIA, interactive and fog. Render OpenVDB, Field3D and Phoenix FD volume denoising works exceptionally well for previews — even with caches at blazing speeds. only a few samples.
LIGHTING ANALYSIS PHYSICAL HAIR MATERIAL
Accurately measure the light levels in your scene. Render Render more realistic-looking hair with accurate highlights false color heat maps and light value overlays with new using the new V-Ray Physical Hair Material. Melanin lighting analysis tools. controls make it easy to select any hair color — from blonde, to brunette, to redhead. And for more rebellious punk rock looks there are hair dye colors too.
3 V-RAY SWITCH MATERIAL V-RAY PLUGIN MATERIAL & TEXTURE
Now with a single V-Ray Switch Material you can apply Load any texture or material that’s available in V-Ray several materials to the same object. And then switch to Standalone and render it in V-Ray Next for 3ds Max. Using the one you want at render time. It’s perfect for rendering the new V-Ray Plugin Texture and V-Ray Plugin Material, you material options, adding random variations, and creating can use any V-Ray procedural texture or even create PBR extra passes for compositing. materials for Unity and Unreal.
DENOISED RENDER ELEMENTS METALNESS
For more control in compositing, you can now denoise The V-Ray Material adds support for PBR shaders with new individual render elements and recompose them back to Metalness reflection controls. the denoised beauty pass. And it works with the standalone denoiser for animation.
